Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

Almost one month has passed since release. In retrospect....

  • This is by far the best Smash ever. Like, I don't even know how they will top this.

  • Pretty freakin' good; I have a few qualms over things like internet play, balancing issues, etc.

  • It's ok, but [insert Smash game here] is better.

  • I'd rather play Parcheesi.

If anything the Mii costume raises Geno's chances because Sakurai has said that the Flying Man costume was because the team made 3D Flying Man assets they didn't want to just scrap so they turned them into a costume. Something similar may have happened with Geno. Not that I'm a Geno pusher or anything, it's just an interesting tidbit.

I mostly just came in here to change the subject and say that while I understand the stigma behind fourth parties, part of me unironically wants Scrooge McDuck in Smash.

While I'll definitely say that it's the case for the Flying Man, I wouldn't say it's the case for all of the costumes, Geno included.

This unused content does make you wonder what we'll find within Ultimate's database. It'll definitely be a gold mine for sure...

Are we talking about anime-like characters?

Meanwhile I’m more worried over Imran alluding to no new Namco reps cause that destroys KOS-MOS’ chances, let alone other characters people want like Lloyd.

Well, right now everybody else was talking about cut characters from Smash, while I was wondering to myself how a Smash game made for either the GBA or DS would turn out.

Oh no, I'm aware. It's just interesting since it means they have the assets that can be repurposed. Makes you wonder how many of them that was the case for. Could be a bunch, could be none.

You see, I would be worried, but there's this lovely thing called

Downloadable Content

and it's where dreams come true.

I'd look at it in reverse, honestly.
In the same way that Flying Man's 3D model had assets ported into it's Mii costume, it's also likely and possible that characters that had Mii Costumes, such as Isabelle, K. Rool, Zero, etc. will have their assets ported or heavily inspired by their mii costumes once they become fighters/assists/etc.

What are you talking about

What talk
Well, in the interview. Where he mentioned Geno for Brawl he said that in the end it didn't happened... Alongside the Scrapped Mario RPG music... And y'know if it couldn't happens either he just had an idea, time constraints or talk failed. There not a lot of reasons for a third parties to not get in realistically since I suppose they take priority in development.

But yeah, hopefully the Mii costume can be something he can use as a proof to bend Square's hand like "see? It sold a lot now lemme use the Characters"

Speaking of Namco reps. I still say Nightmare is the most deserving for the following reasons.

1. Namco has been helping Nintendo and Sakurai with the Smash games since Sm4sh.
2. It'd return the favor of Link guest starring in the GameCube version of Soulcalibur II
3. At some chance we get a reveal next week it'd commemorate Soulcalibur IV.
4. He'd be the first third party villain and third party non-protagonist.

Too bad it'll probably just be another generic karate fighter in the form of Heihachi if Namco gets a second character...

Everyone is Vergeben because some guy said so.
Also, the possibility of Geno not being in Smash at all, and instead end up like he has in the past as a Considered Character like the many other Considered Characters.
What happened with Geno this time?

Oh; cut characters; there is probably characters we still don't know that were considered in previous games; knowing that Marth was part of Smash 64 plan wasn't know until like 2014.

He said of Vergeben, "That's because 'he' is like six different people pulling rumors from eighteen different sources. " Later he elaborated, "I did some research into it when information that was previously only available in small circles got posted. Then I took note of when some other information that came to me from a source stopped coming from him as well. And then there were some things the account posted that were straight up wrong and I tracked down where they came from and who those people gave that information to."
Oh okay cool, thanks :)

>"Deserving" as an argument
>Dissing another fighter as generic

What is this? 2014 Pre-Sm4sh speculation?

Also, the next Namco rep is going to be Lloyd. This image from the Zinith of Lloyd supporters explains things pretty well. Tales of is a massive series in Japan. It literally has it's own amusement park attraction at a major amusement park in Japan, it's that big.

Deserving was probably the wrong choice of word to say so apologies. Embarrass

Well better then Heihachi that's for sure.

It'd be a great image if you didn't save the thumbnail.
It's gone through pixelation hell.

EDIT: He fixed it.

Interesting note that they redesigned his gun just for this
Like they redesigned K. Rool "just for his Mii costume"

do we know for sure the geno costumes sold well

and i will laugh as the world burns
I'm pretty sure the fact that it exists is what matters most.
We don't know that ANY costume sold well.
